but the desire to be independent from a larger governing body is there. it's at least similar in idea.

Nationalism is on the rise in the West at the moment. 

However, this issue between Catalonia and Spain is much older but I think one could argue the rising nationalist atmosphere could have given it a push.

Deutchexit (or whatever the German exit is) will probably be the ultimate end of the EU (if it happens).

I guess the Brexit really fanned the flames.

Could be.  I just can't imagine what this kind of thing would look like in my own country; the Northeast, Midwest, South, and West Coast have pretty different cultures and economic profiles(though we all share generally the same language), and it would be so strange for any of those regions to break away because of that.  I realize that already happened once as the Civil War, but... in the 21st century?   :sweat: 

I'm talkin' 'bout forever, baby.

What I'm NOT saying

-Catalonian bid for independence is new due to Brexit

-the government structure between EU:UK and Spain:Catalonia are one and the same

What I'm saying

-movement for independence may have been stronger recently due to Brexit

 

if anybody else is trying to correct me, I edited my first post as well

Like in here 1947 partition Britain divided us based on religion. Then it didn't go in the right way.. We used to be East Pakistan, our culture and language didn't match. Just because religion we used to be one country..   And other side look Kashmir, they really need freedom but Pakistan and India are fighting for their own good. I think it's far from nationalism.

If they actually get the independence I hope the EU won't let them in. EU should impose an economic embargo on them.

The East Pakistan/Bengal union with Pakistan has to be one of the stupidest things Britain did with their former colonies besides letting the 13 Colonies have a shot at independence.     :air:

I didn’t say Catalonia is doing this solely because of nationalism. I said the current political climate of the West favors this type of action more than when it was more liberal.

Ah no.. They wanted freedom they got it. On the other side 'Kashmir' still not independent. sigh. 

It is not that wasy, bud. Politics, you see. There will be civil war if this goes on. History will repeat itself.

No, deaths and fights need to be prevented. Another civil war in Europe needs to be prevented with diplomacy.
